  • Approved Resolutions June 2020
    RESOLUTION SUPPORTING THE ADOPTION OF THE BLACK TO THE FUTURE ACTION FUND BLACK AGENDA 2020 Sponsors: Shanell Williams, Anabel Ibanez, Peter Gollata, Li Miao Lovett Co-sponsors: Campos, Baraka, Loftus, Avalos, Chen, Mahogany, Kim, Li, Mar WHEREAS Black people have no economic power and are locked out of living-wage jobs by governmental policies from the federal to the local level, it is time to invest in the health and wealth of our Black communities and empower Black people in our Democracy. We live in a country where the average white family has $140,500 in wealth while the average Black family has only $3,400. Here in San Francisco, an Office of Racial Equity had to be created to address racially discriminatory employment practices with inequities along racial lines in housing, healthcare, education, and transportation. It is time to finally build the democracy promised to all Americans. WHEREAS Black people are sicker and die younger than members of other communities, we must challenge policies and practices that cause health disparities and deliver care needed to live long and live well. Black workers are concentrated in industries that offer no benefits, meaning they often lack paid leave to manage care for oneself or one’s relatives. To compound the problem, Black patients often report inadequate diagnosis and treatment; for example, Black people suffer from amputation at a rate triple that of others due to unordered tests and profit made from performing these procedures. In order to make Black people powerful in their families, we must address inequities in our healthcare system.

  • Bamcinématek Presents Under the Influence: Scorsese/Walsh, a 12
    BAMcinématek presents Under the Influence: Scorsese/Walsh, a 12-film series pairing Martin Scorsese works with their inspirations from Raoul Walsh’s seminal oeuvre, Mar 12—26 Opens with Walsh’s Regeneration, featuring live piano by acclaimed silent film accompanist Steve Sterner The Wall Street Journal is the title sponsor for BAMcinématek and BAM Rose Cinemas. Brooklyn, NY/Feb 12, 2014—From Wednesday, March 12 through Wednesday, March 26, BAMcinématek presents Under the Influence: Scorsese/Walsh, pairing six Scorsese classics with their inspirations from Raoul Walsh’s seminal oeuvre. The still-undervalued Walsh’s lean, mean portraits of gangsters, knack for evoking gritty urban locales, and assured handling of white- knuckle action provide a virtual template for modern-day maestro (and avowed Walsh admirer) Martin Scorsese’s work. Viewed side by side, the films of these two iconic auteurs reveal a fascinating and ongoing creative dialogue across the generations. One of the great action directors of the Hollywood studio era, Raoul Walsh was the swaggering, manly-man artist behind some of the best movies to star James Cagney, Humphrey Bogart, and Errol Flynn. ―Walsh’s explosive outcast characters were bigger than life,‖ said Martin Scorsese, whose own violent, masculine oeuvre is just as full of explosive outcasts. ―Their lust for life was insatiable, even as their actions precipitated their tragic destiny. The world was too small for them.‖ Walsh was ―probably Scorsese’s single most important influence,‖ wrote critic Dave Kehr (Moving Image Source), even if Scorsese’s debts to Michael Powell, Luchino Visconti, and other filmmakers have been more widely acknowledged over the years.

Il film racconta, nel corso dei decenni, uno dei più grandi misteri irrisolti della storia americana, la scomparsa del leggendario sindacalista Jimmy Hoffa, e ci accompagna in uno straordinario viaggio attraverso i segreti del crimine organizzato: i suoi meccanismi interni, le rivalità e le connessioni con la politica tradizionale.
